Bjorn Rebney: “At Bellator, There’s Never Been a Matchmaker Sitting Behind the Desk…Deciding Who Fights Who For The Title”

Bellator’s next light-heavyweight tourney will begin January 17th and established fighters like “King Mo” Lawal and Renato Sobral will be some of the men competing to earn a bout with champion Christian M’Pumbu.

“At Bellator, there’s never been a matchmaker sitting behind a desk in a shiny suit deciding who fights who for the title,” said Bellator Chairman & CEO Bjorn Rebney. “The origin of Bellator was to provide a seamless connection between real sports competition and mixed martial arts, and I believe we have taken that to the next level with a true tournament bracket format.”

Bellator’s upcoming season will be broadcast live on SPIKE.
